Terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement defined below.

A. Lender, Borrowers and Guarantors have previously entered into that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated July 30, 2021 (as amended, modified and supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender has made certain loans and financial accommodations available to Borrowers.

B. Lender, Borrowers and Guarantors now wish to amend the Loan Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

C. The Loan Parties are entering into this Amendment with the understanding and agreement that, except as specifically provided herein, none of Lender’s rights or remedies as set forth in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document is being waived or modified by the terms of this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

Amount of Loans / Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including Sections 1.3 and 1.6, Lender shall, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, at Borrowing Agent’s request, (i) make revolving loans to Borrowers (“Revolving Loans”), and (ii) make, or cause or permit a Participant (as defined in Section 10.10) to issue, letters of credit (“Letters

of Credit”) available to Borrowers; provided, that after giving effect to each such Revolving Loan and each such Letter of Credit, (A) the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance will not exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, and (B) none of the other Loan Limits for Revolving Loans will be exceeded. All Revolving Loans shall be made in and repayable in Dollars.

1.2 Reserves re Revolving Loans / Letters of Credit. Lender may, with or without notice to Borrowing Agent, from time to time establish and revise Reserves against the Borrowing Base and/or the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount in such amounts and of such types as Lender deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion. Such Reserves shall be available for Borrowing Agent to view in Passport 6.0 simultaneously with the imposition thereof; provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall provide email notice advising Borrowing Agent of such Reserves two (2) Business Days prior to the imposition of such Reserves (during which period (x) Lender shall be available to discuss any such proposed Reserves with the Borrowing Agent to afford the Borrowing Agent an opportunity to take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or circumstance that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists in the manner and to the extent satisfactory to the Lender in its Permitted Discretion and (y) Borrowers may not obtain any new Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit to the extent that, after giving pro forma effect to such proposed Reserves, such Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit would cause the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance to exceed the lesser of (a) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount minus Reserves and (b) the Borrowing Base). The amount of any Reserve established by the Lender shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter which is the basis for such Reserve as determined by the Lender (provided that the circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies existing or arising prior to the First Amendment Effective Date and known to the Lender, in each case, prior to the First Amendment Effective Date, shall, to the extent not reserved for as of the First Amendment Effective Date, not be the basis for the establishment of any Reserves after the First Amendment Effective Date, unless such circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies shall have changed since the First Amendment Effective Date) in good faith and to the extent that such Reserve is in respect of amounts that may be payable to third parties. Without limiting the foregoing, references to Reserves shall include the Dilution Reserve. In no event shall the establishment of a Reserve in respect of a particular actual or contingent liability obligate Lender to make advances to pay such liability or otherwise obligate Lender with respect thereto.

(i) Borrowers shall have provided to Lender such information as Lender may require in order to determine the Borrowing Base, as of such borrowing or issue date, after giving effect to such Loans and/or Letters of Credit, as applicable;

(i) the sum of the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance exceeds the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, or

Voluntary Termination of Loan Facilities. Borrowers may, solely after the six (6) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date and on at least fifteen (15) days prior and irrevocable written notice received by Lender, permanently terminate the Loan facilities by repaying all of the outstanding Obligations, including all principal, interest and fees with respect to the Revolving Loans, and an Early Payment/Termination Premium in the amount specified in the paragraph under the heading “Early Payment/Termination Premium” in the Fee Letter. If, on the date of a voluntary termination pursuant to this Section 1.8, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date, and as a condition precedent to such termination, Borrowers shall provide to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. From and after such date of termination, Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to extend any additional Loans or Letters of Credit and all of its lending commitments hereunder shall be terminated.

4.1 Cash Management. Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants that all Deposit Accounts (other than Excluded Accounts) and all other depositary and other accounts maintained by each Loan Party (other than Excluded Accounts) as of the Closing Date are described in Section 34 of the Information Certificate, which description includes for each such account the name of the Loan Party maintaining such account, the name of the financial institution at which such account is maintained, the account number, and the purpose of such account. After the Closing Date, within forty-five (45) days after the establishment of a Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) (or such later date as the Lender may agree in writing in its sole discretion), the applicable Loan Party shall cause such Deposit Account to be subject to a control agreement by and among the applicable Loan Party, the Lender and the depositary institution, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender in its Permitted Discretion; provided, that, any existing Deposit Account (other than Excluded Accounts) shall not be closed prior to the establishment of a control agreement on such new Deposit Account. Each Loan Party will, at its expense, establish (and revise from time to time as Lender may require in its Permitted Discretion) procedures acceptable to Lender, in Lender’s Permitted Discretion, for the collection of checks, wire transfers and all other

proceeds of all of such Loan Party’s Accounts and other Collateral (“Collections”), which shall include depositing all Collections received by such Loan Party into one or more bank accounts maintained in the name of such Loan Party (but as to which upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Springing DACA Event, Lender will have exclusive access) (each, a “Springing DACA Account”), under an arrangement acceptable to Lender in its Permitted Discretion with a depository bank satisfactory to Lender in its Permitted Discretion, pursuant to which all funds deposited into each Springing DACA Account are, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Springing DACA Event, to be transferred to Lender in such manner, and with such frequency, as Lender shall specify. Each Borrower agrees to execute, and to cause its depository banks and other account holders to execute, such springing deposit account control agreements and other documentation as Lender shall require in its Permitted Discretion from time to time in connection with the foregoing, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its Permitted Discretion, and in any event such arrangements and documents must be in place on the Closing Date with respect to accounts in existence on the Closing Date, in each case excluding Excluded Accounts. Prior to the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a complete and executed Authorized Accounts form regarding Borrower’s operating account(s) into which the proceeds of Loans are to be paid in the form of Exhibit D annexed hereto.

(g) SEVENTH, to the payment of any other outstanding Obligations; and after payment in full in cash of all of the outstanding monetary Obligations, any further amounts paid to or received by Lender in respect of the Obligations (so long as no monetary Obligations are outstanding) shall be paid over to Borrowers or such other Person(s) as may be legally entitled thereto. For purposes of determining the Borrowing Base, such amounts will be credited to the Loan Account and the Collateral balances to which they relate upon Lender’s receipt of an advice from Lender’s Bank (set forth in Section 5 of Schedule A) that such items have been credited to Lender’s account at Lender’s Bank (or upon Lender’s deposit thereof at Lender’s Bank in the case of payments received by Lender in kind), in each case subject to final payment and collection. However, for purposes of computing interest on the Obligations, such items shall be deemed applied by Lender two (2) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of advice of deposit thereof at Lender’s Bank.

4.7 Access to Collateral, Books and Records. At reasonable times during normal business hours, Lender and/or its representatives or agents shall have the right to inspect the Collateral, and the right to examine and copy each Loan Party’s books and records not more than two (2) times per year (the scope of which shall be determined in Lender’s reasonable discretion), upon reasonable advance notice to the Borrowers; provided, however, that when an Event of Default exists the Lender (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of the Borrowers at any time during normal business hours as often as may be desired and without advance notice. Each Loan Party agrees to give Lender access to any

or all of such Loan Party’s, and each of its Subsidiaries’, premises to enable Lender to conduct such inspections and examinations. Such inspections and examinations shall be at Borrowers’ expense and the charge therefor shall be $1,500 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent Lender’s then current standard charge), plus out-of-pocket expenses. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and in the event Lender elects to exercise remedies hereunder, Lender may, at Borrowers’ expense, use each Loan Party’s personnel, computer and other equipment, programs, printed output and computer readable media, supplies and premises for the collection, sale or other disposition of Collateral to the extent Lender, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes all accountants and other financial professional third parties to disclose and deliver to Lender, at Borrowers’ expense, all financial information, books and records, work papers, management reports and other information in their possession regarding the Loan Parties.

5.4 Accounts, Chattel Paper and Inventory. As of each date reported by Borrowers, all Accounts which Borrowers have then reported to Lender as then being Eligible Accounts comply in all material respects with the criteria for eligibility set forth in the definition of Eligible Accounts. All such Accounts and Chattel Paper are genuine and in all respects what they purport to be, arise out of a completed, bona fide and unconditional and non-contingent sale and delivery of goods or rendition of services by Borrowers in the ordinary course of their business and in accordance with the terms and conditions of all purchase orders, contracts or other documents relating thereto, each Account Debtor thereunder had the capacity to contract at the time any contract or other document giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper were executed, and the transactions giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations.
